Note 20 — INTRODUCTION THE NAVY BEFORE 1509

Reading edition

Exch. Accts. (Q.R.), Bdle. 49, No. 29, and Roll of Foreign Accounts, No. 8. The tonnage of the Grace Dieu is only mentioned twice, and, in one of those two mentions, is given as 1400. This must be a mistake on the part of the Treasury clerk. The 1000 tons of the Jesus of the Tower seems very suspicious, but as in nearly every instance, the tonnage is only once given there is no opportunity for collation.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
